MONTHLY NEWSLETTER – August 19, 2024 Fulfilling Your DestinyBy David Wilkerson “In Him also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestined according to the purpose of Him who works all things according to the counsel of His will, that we who first trusted in Christ should be to the praise of His glory” (Ephesians 1:11-12, NKJV, my emphasis). We have been predestined to a certain purpose. Yet what exactly is “destiny”? In simple terms, it is God’s appointed or ordained future for you. Destiny is what God has predetermined you to be and become in his divine will. It may surprise you to learn there are no individual destinies but one destiny for all believers. At the cross, God gathered up all the individual destinies of humankind into one grand purpose and placed them all in his Son. “That in the dispensation of the fullness of the times He might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven and which are on earth—in Him” (Ephesians 1:10). Yes, you do have a destiny, and it is the same as mine. It doesn’t matter whether you’re a restaurant server or the captain of an ocean liner; we all have the same fixed, predetermined destiny, given to us before the world was formed. |
